The Official Manufacturing Company

OMFGCO (The Official Manufacturing Company) is a Portland, Oregon-based thing making machine. Comprised of three gentlemen whose experience includes Wieden + Kennedy, Ace Hotel and probably a million sketchbooks — the crew handles a wide variety of graphic and visual projects with supreme dexterity.

I really enjoy the Co.’s collateral and branding systems. Obviously, the work for Ace Hotel is great. But they’ve also done work for smaller companies in their local Portland. What’s nice to see is that, whether the project be large or small, the attention to detail remains the same. It’s always a thrill to see so many various pieces come together to inform a single brand or idea.
